Introduction: Automatic insulin delivery (AID) systems improve glycemic control and quality of life in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Our aim was to assess the feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of switching from a sensor-augmented pump (SAP) to AID in T1D subjects at high risk of hypoglycemia.
Materials And Methods: A manufacturer-led program consisting of three sessions was implemented.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between cumulative tobacco consumption and atherosclerosis in patients with type 1 diabetes, focusing on its potential to enhance the Steno T1 Risk Engine (ST1RE) for identifying arterial plaques.
- A total of 584 type 1 diabetes patients were examined, revealing a 40.9% prevalence of plaques, with cumulative tobacco use correlating with higher plaque counts even after adjusting for various health factors.
- Although adding cumulative tobacco consumption to the ST1RE didn't significantly improve plaque identification overall, it did enhance detection specifically in active smokers, suggesting further research is necessary to understand its implications for atherosclerosis risk in type 1 diabetes.
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of advanced hybrid closed loop (AHCL) on glycemic control throughout the menstrual cycle (MC) in women with type 1 diabetes. We included 39 pairs of spontaneous MCs from 13 participants, before and after switching from sensor-augmented pump to AHCL. Baseline time below range <70 mg/dL (TBR <70) was significantly higher during the midfollicular phase than during late luteal phase (5.

- People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) face a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), and this study explored how following the energy-restricted Mediterranean diet (erMEDd) affects carotid atherosclerosis.
- A total of 401 T1D patients were studied, and those with carotid plaques displayed lower adherence to the erMEDd compared to those without plaques.
- The results indicate that better adherence to the Mediterranean diet is linked to less atherosclerosis, emphasizing the need for encouraging healthy eating habits in T1D patients, especially those at risk for CVD.*
